Oh I am obsessed with this. Finding Omegaverse out in the wild? I didn't even know what this book was about before I started reading, but I enjoyed every second of it. The internal struggle that Echo has about her feelings, in general really but especially towards Adam; the world building; Adam. Just, Adam. I love him and his broken heart.
I did struggle with the fact that in a universe that has no rules other than "there are no rules," the author still made a conscious decision to make Omegas only be women and it didn't sit right with me once I realized it. It seemed odd and a little sexist to have Omegas be treated the way they are in this world and to also make them only be women. Except for the one male Omega who was then pointed out as being an oddity because men aren't Omegas.
But other than that thought, I devoured this.
